It’s Official: Feminists Have Caused Female Students Now Suffer from Rape Anxiety

Well, it’s official.

For years, feminists have been accusing men of being pompous, arrogant, power-stealing, sexual predators who could strike at any moment… and it should be no surprise that impressionable college students believe them.  An incredible student essay in Stanford’s newspaper shows just how emotionally unstable a steady diet of feminist fear mongering can make a student.  Rhea Karuturi wrote about how she and her friends talk about the possibility of being raped all the time, and how their normal walks now are filled with dread:

What I’m talking about has a technical name: It’s rape anxiety. It’s the anxiety, the mundane, common anxiety — when you’re walking, when you’re going somewhere new, whatever — that there is a danger you could get raped. But more simply, what it feels like is fear. It feels like not being comfortable walking back to your own dorm, your home, and it feels like looking over your shoulder because it’s after 8 p.m. I keep telling myself that I’m overreacting, that really, the chances are so slim — but then I’m alone and walking to Toyon to do a p-set, and everything looks sinister in the orange street lights. It’s almost comical, except it’s not at all.

But what is it exactly?

It’s a general feeling of fear — it’s having to weigh the chance that you won’t be safe when deciding if you want to go to a meeting across campus at 9:30 p.m. And the more I talk about it with my friends, that more we kept coming back to the same ideas: It is so real to us, this fear. Whether you knew the term or not, we all knew the feeling — all feel it more often than would seem rational. And it’s not fair.

It’s not fair?  It’s not even sensible.  As Truth Revolt points out:

Liberal feminists are hell-bent on trying to convince Americans that college campuses are particularly dangerous for women, they’re demonizing male students, and they’re radically expanding the definition of the word rape to include any sex that — in retrospect — is regretted. But there’s a cost to all of this fear-mongering, and the people bearing the brunt of it? Female students on college campuses. They’re told all the time that rape might happen at the drop of a hat…  there’s got to be a psychological effect to that.

It’s time to end the rape rhetoric hysteria.  It’s time for feminists to stop hurting women.
